Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness in the Maqasid Al-Shari'ah - Yasir Qadhi & Yaser Birjas

Many people assume that "Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness" is a distinctly American phenomenon. While it is indeed an American phenomenon, the Islamic Shariah has delineated these concepts from its very inception, and enshrined them in its overall goals. In this lecture, the speakers will show that far from being un-Islamic values, these values form the very core of being a true Muslim.

Haha. The comments by these Islamophobes are hilarious in their desperation to denounce Islam; even if the entire lecture disproves the whole Sharia myth they ascribe to.

@HoChoProductions ~"Muhammad poisoned the sources of human felicity at the foundation by degrading the condidtion of the female sex and he declaired undestiguishing and exterminating war of his religion, against all the rest of mankind. The essence of his doctrine was violence and lust to exalt the brutal over the spiritual part of human nature."~John Quincy Adams~ (Here is one of many)

I don't see a muslim in the group...Does any body else?!!! I do know that while this was happening at the Continental Congress that Islam was kidnapping and murdering millions off of the Barbary Coast. The US was part of them. When told by an Islamic representative that the US was an Enemy of Islam (by the will of Allah. Jefferson chose to investigate the Qu'ran to find out more about this "religion". Since we were Enemies...Islam is a contrdiction to the US in every way. Don't "buy" this video!

I am a Natural Born Citizen of the USA.......Islam is trying to get their foot into our door in a new and greater way to empose their laws upon US. E Pluribus Unum stands against this....Consider Vattel- Laws of the Nations and Ben Franklins remarks conserning that. He says that anyone coming to our country MUST assimilate- to become one of US...Not to empose upon US......Either accept our laws and ways, or go to, or stay at a place where you can practice your own. That's making it EASY...
